While We All Await The Snow To Fly, This Might Give You A Rush.

Pro skier and extreme athlete Richard Permin rips down a spine ridge in Alaska somewhere. While we aren’t advocating this kind of skiing, we do appreciate the skill and courage it takes to even try it. Note Richard’s heavy breathing as he negotiates some knarly steepness and major, major jumps.
A special thanks to Snowbrains for originally posting this. Here’s a link to the original, complete with narrative about Richard. It appears he did this…stunt…only months after recovering from a really bad broken ankle. Richard, you da man. Almost as gutsy as the great classic daredevil Dick Buek or Toni “Straight Down” Matt.
